1. Don't use tobacco
Smoking has been linked to many types of cancer. This includes cancer of the lung, mouth, throat, voice box, pancreas, bladder, cervix, and kidney. Even being around secondhand smoke may raise the risk of lung cancer.
But it's not only smoking that's harmful. Chewing tobacco has been linked to cancer of the mouth, throat, and pancreas.
A great way to help prevent cancer is to not use tobacco. If you want to quit tobacco, ask a healthcare professional about products that can help you stop smoking and other ways of quitting.
